Action: Anglers may retain only one Chinook as part of their two-salmon daily limit.
Effective date: July 15, 2019.
Species affected: Chinook salmon.
Location: Marine Area 3.
Reason for action: Chinook retention in adjacent Catch Area 4 will end July 14. Adjustment of the Chinook daily limit in Area 3 will help ensure that Area 3 stays within its subarea guideline even if fishing effort shifts from Area 4 to Area 3.
Additional information: Anglers are reminded to always check for emergency rule changes prior to fishing. Rule changes can be found on the website at https://fortress.wa.gov/dfw/erules/efishrules/ or by calling the fishing hotline at 360-902-2500.
